Oh no, Mary. I'm not surprised you are black and blue - this must have been a huge shock. Please, don't do anything over the weekend - just rest and take it as easy as possible. Hoping and praying you will soon start to feel better. Love Jeanxx

Oh Mary
My thoughts are with you. It really knocks you for six when you fall. It certainly does me.
How inconsiderate and bad mannered of the driver to hoot his horn at you, he/she could have come and helped you up.
Have a relaxing weekend and take it carefully.
Love Marlene xx

Mary, its really horrible when something like that happens, just hoping the bruises improve rapidly and that you are felling a little better now and able to enjoy some of the weekend sunshine. With many best wishes Sheila

Oh Mary, poor you! You have every right to feel sorry for yourself. Get lots of rest over the weekend and I hope you feel better soon. I suppose that means the pole dancing's off for tonight? Doreen xx

Oh Mary, you poor soul! What a nasty experience - you must be feeling shaky. I`m so soory that ignorant people assumed you were drunk - sometimes I think we have become a very uncaring society. I dread having a fall as someone would have to haul me to my feet. Hope you feel better soon, and don`t worry about the pole-dancing - we`ll just have to manage without you. Jean is secretly looking forward to showing us all her moves. Take care, Kathleen x

What an awful thing to happen - poor you! It's bad enough at the best of times, but when you're feeling unwell as well, it's enough to make anyone cry. No wonder you felt sorry for yourself, I know I would too.
Hope you're feeling better and having a good rest.
Love Lyn

Dear Mary, You have every right to be upset. Why is it that the first thing people think of when someone falls down is that they are drunk ?! This has happened to me too and sometimes it is more upsetting than the actual fall. But someone DID come to your aid, so not all people are thoughtless! I do hope you soon feel a little better and that the bruises soon fade. You rest as much as possible because the shock of it all does you no good. Thinking of you. Take care of yourself.

Hi Mary Sorry to hear of your fall and hope you are feeling less sore today. I think sometimes it's harder to get over the shock of finding yourself on the floor than the bruises themselves! Don't forget to slop on the arnica by the bucket load ... it's wonderful for dispersing bruises Take care (or perhaps I should say 'more care'  ) Lyn x

Oh Mary!
What a frightening experience- I am so sorry you fell and have bruises. That must have been so painful in many ways.
Much love and many prayers for you,

Dear Mary,
What a lousey thing to happen. As for the sods who assumed that you were drunk, what goes around comes around as they say. Hope that you are not too bruised and sore. Must be bad if pole dancing is off for tonight. Will e mail you.

Hope you are feeling less sore and shaken Mary. It is a bad enough experience without putting up with being laughed at and harrassed by car horns. Just wanted to say 'thinking of you' and hope this week is a better one XX Ailsa
